treatments--it was good enough if you survived the cancer. However, with
people living longer after treatment, there are enough survivors to see

childhood NHL, where treatments occur during development. However, all
survivors should be aware of late effect symptoms for which to seek
monitoring or treatment.

What to Expect During
Radiotherapy. This article describes a typical radiotherapy
